How long after the expiration date can I use/eat eggs?

I eat them as long as they do not float in a bowl of water. I have eaten them quite long past sell by dates.

here's the thing. if an egg is off, you will KNOW from the smell. if it smells okay, it's most likely okay. so if I'm cooking it in a way where I have to break the shell first, I've always had a habit of breaking into a cup, and then adding it to the container if it is okay. even fresh, within date eggs can have the odd bad one, and this means it won't ruin all the rest by being broken straight into the container. if you'r going to boil your eggs, put them in a large container of water. if they float, they are off. if they sink they are okay. as an egg gets older, the skin comes away from the shell surface, creating an air pocket. that air pocket makes the egg buoyant. if it smells bad, don't eat it. that's about all you need to know.

I wouldn't be using any eggs after the use by date. I am very suspectible to changes in taste in eggs, and even a slighlty off egg, really turns me off.

If you're not sure if an egg is still viable,fill a bowl with water and place it in there..if the egg floats round side up,it's gone..don't use it... a fresh egg will sink.

I usually have 2 cartons of eggs in my fridge - the newer ones and the older ones. The newer ones I use when I want to eat eggs. Hard boiled, omelets, or something like that. The older ones I use to cook with. I will put them in cookies or use them to bread chicken. I have never had a problem!! They just dont taste quite as good if you are trying to eat them plain. I have used eggs a couple of months past their expiration date. I hate wasting money and since I have never had a problem, I will continue to do so!

I have used eggs way past the expiration date and never really paid mind if they were old or not. But I have picked up a few tips from the other responders that I will pay close attention to. However, I usually go by the appearance and or smell of the egg myself.

If the eggs are going in a dish I will use eggs up to a week after the expiration date. I've done that and not gotten sick or anything. But as for making scrambled eggs, a singular egg dish, I won't eat them after their expiration date. I'm sure they would be fine because they were fine in a big dish, but it's just a mental thing with me.

I'm not really sure but I do know they last a very long time past expiration. I have used them about 2-3 months after expiration.

You can use them 3-4 weeks past the expiration date with no ill effects.

When I was growing up we bought eggs from a neighbor. She had so many cartons of eggs she couldn't refrigerate them. Who knows how long she had them.. they were fresh eggs. Actually they were what we call double yolkers. They were always good. They weren't store bought eggs and no expiration dates.. In fact, I don't think anything had expiration dates back then, and I never got sick.
